Sigh. cygwin's rxvt is not broken. It works for me, and about 2000 others. A few people seem to need additional help, and usually they seem to work it out themselves (typically, the problem is in their xserver configuration, or PIBKAC, because they haven't bothered to read the man pages, READMEs, other documenation, or STFW). If somebody having a problem with rxvt ever followed the instructions on cygwin's problem page (and followed any of the embedded links, also reproduced below): http://cygwin.com/problems.html http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html and demonstrated that they HAD, in fact, RTFMed and STFWed and read the READMEs and other documentation... first, I'd faint. Then, I'd be more than willing to help (and my first question would be, does xterm work? G ). But short of that, I've little motivation to answer repeated questions already answered elsewhere. I'd much rather engage in tendentious discussions like this one. No, scratch that. I don't enjoy wasting time this way, either -- but since we're here, dadgummit... On the cygwin lists, there are typically two possible meanings of the word maintainer. However, there is a third meaning, and it appears we are failing to communicate because you're assuming only definitions A and C, and I was assuming only definitions A and B: A: the upstream maintainer. E.g: the x.org folks for most of X you, for xterm, ncurses, etc me, for cygutils and a few other even more obscure things the committers for gcc. nobody, for rxvt B: the cygwin maintainer. The person responsible for the package on the cygwin mirror system, for accepting/acting on bug reports and patches *reported on the cygwin mailing lists*, for occasionally monitoring the upstream lists and feeding patches upstream. And sometimes, if one is really lucky, providing 24/7 call-center-style end-user hand-holding. This person approaches package 'X' as a member of the cygwin community, rather than the other way around. E.g. Harold Hunt, for xterm (yes, he's gone; so in cygwin parlance, xterm is unmaintained (but see category C, below) me, for ncurses and rxvt and about 30 others Dave Korn, for gcc (but Dave is now, also, a committer for gcc, which puts him in category A *and* C, as well!) I don't do much end-user hand-holding, for any of my packages. Maybe that makes me a *bad* maintainer. But it does NOT mean, in the sense most often used on the cygwin lists, that cygwin's rxvt (or zlib, or unzip, or gettext, or...) package is unmaintained. Quick: who's the maintainer of ncurses? Depends on what you mean by maintainer. C: a project maintainer with a focus on portability to a particular platform. That is, a member of the project 'X' community, who is either responsible for, or otherwise cares about, whether 'X' works on [linux|cygwin|mingw|darwin|whathaveyou]. This person may (or may not) be a regular on the target platform's (cygiwn's?) mailing lists -- they may instead do all their porting work within the 'X' community's mailing lists. This is typically the case for those projects that have cygwin ports, but do not, for whatever reason, submit them as official packages for the cygwin mirror system. E.g. Yaakov Selkowitz (cygwin-ports) provides Gnome, KDE, and xFCE packages -- but uses /those/ projects' mailing lists and bugzillas to manage it. He specifically requests that users of cygports use the mailing lists he has set up, and NOT cygwin's lists. However, he also hangs out on the cygwin lists, so... You, for xterm (and ncurses, and terminfo). You answer questions here, but do not take responsibility for the xterm package on the cygwin mirrors. Dave Korn, gcc: he now spends as much time/posts as many messages on the various gcc lists as he does the cygwin lists, and has been given commit-after-approval access to gcc svn. So, with regards to gcc, Dave is a hat trick: A, B, and C. Obviously, there can be a lot of overlap. And often, cooperation: I'm the 'B' maintainer for both gettext and libintl, but Bruno (the 'A' maintainer) takes a lot of interest in the cygwin and mingw platforms. I'll often send him patches, either directly or via bug-gettext, and he

Hi I try to install mrxvt from source code into cygwin.

I also add this environment variables. export CYGWIN_LIBX11=/usr/X11R6/lib export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R6/lib :$LD_LIBRARY_PATH But it still doesn't work. What's the problem?

The hotkeys to change tabs or something. Has anyone get this working on cygwin X and how?? With which Key definition?? I usually use Exceed and not the cygwin X server, but the Gnome settings as described in doc/TIPS work for me: Gnome-terminal style default hotkeys: Ctrl_Shift_t: create a new tab Ctrl_Shift_w: close active tab Ctrl_PgUp : activate left tab Ctrl_PgDn : activate right tab Meta_1 : activate 1st tab ... Meta_9 : activate 9th tab Ctrl_Shift_+: increase font size (next font) Ctrl_= : increase font size (next font) Ctrl_Shift__: decrease font size (previous font) Ctrl_- : decrease font size (previous font) Cheers, Charles

I was able to get .13 working. Tabs worked for me without problems.
